The micro version number is ignored in a.out executable headers. 1.0.3 -> 1.0 is perfectly fine from the executable's perspective. The only thing that cares is ldconfig, it'll choose the highest micro version number when building it's pathname cache. However, I suspect 1.0 is treated as 1.0.0 and an old 1.0.3 will be found in preference to 1.0. > Satoshi Cheers, -Peter
